Theoretical analysis of hydrocarbon refrigerant mixtures as a replacement for HCFC22 for residential uses.

Summary

The COP and the seasonal performance factor were calculated using a heat-exchange-area model for single-component refrigerants and refrigerant mixtures. Simulations were run for pure propane and the mixtures of propane/i-pentane, propane/n-butane, and propane/i-butane. The simulation results obtained with the hydrocarbon refrigerants were compared to the results with pure R22, a mixture of R32-R125 (50-50% by weight) and a mixture of R32-R125-R134a (23-25-52% by weight).
